Grammy Awards-nominated artiste, Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, has finally reconciled with his father, Mr Fatai Odunsi, pledging to cover his medical bills and purchase a new house for him.
This comes after a video surfaced online where Mr Odunsi appealed for help from the public.
Odunsi, who said he has been paralysed following a stroke, alleged that he had been abandoned by the artiste and had not seen him since March 2022.
He further claimed that his calls to Asake have gone unanswered and called on Nigerians to assist him with funds for his treatment.
However, in a recent development on Sunday, Mr Odunsi confirmed that Asake has now reached out to him.
Speaking in Yoruba, he expressed pride in his son and offered prayers, stating that he spoke out because it had been a long time since they last saw each other.
“His mother ought to ask him when last he saw me. That was what got me angry, but we have sorted all the problems. We are no longer fighting.”
He further disclosed that Asake has already initiated plans to buy him a house through real estate agents, saying, “Asake said he will do everything that I want. We have settled, no more problems. They are now looking for a new house that he will buy for me. He has settled everything.”
Odunsi also revealed that the singer has committed to taking full responsibility for his 11-year-old daughter, Zeenat.
“He has never denied his child, but he has now promised to take full responsibility for the child.”
